Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have always wanted to visit Petra and doing it this way, to raise money for charity at the same time, seems the best way to do it.

Now I have just over a year to train and get fit enough to trek 10 miles a day through the Jordanian desert.
